And now we head to game five Guardians.

Congratulations.

You kept the series going as a gift.

You get Tare Scuba.

Uh Yeah, but hey, they wouldn't, they wouldn't have it any other way.

This is a, just an incredible opportunity for Scuba.

We don't know exactly who's starting for Cleveland.

Of course, it was Matt Boyd in game two.

It would make some sense to at least start with Boyd.

It's again, they have all these other relievers.

Maybe you just go an interesting sequence of relievers from the jump.

I, I don't, I'm not exactly sure we'll probably get some clarification on that at some point.

But for Scuba man, I mean, he has just delivered basically for 45 consecutive outings when the Tigers have needed him.

And this will be also back in Cleveland, right.

Of course, it would have been cool to see Scuba pitch at home, but with his interaction with the, with the Cleveland crowd, with his dominance in game two, I think that would be very, very cool to see as well.

The Yankees are the big winner here because Scuba if the Tigers win now wouldn't pitch until game three, which would be in Detroit.

So that would be very cool to see.

But, uh, yeah, so that'll be, I'll, I'll be there.

It will really be.

I am, I am very excited.

Uh Cleveland, I mean, you know, we shouldn't be that surprised.

Of course, this has been a very, very successful team all season and, and Detroit as we saw, you know, offensively also, you know, has some limitations but it'll be, uh, that we've had some classics already in the, in the series and, and I hope that that Saturday is, is no different.
